Switch default console tty from /dev/console to /dev/constty
With this switch processes (such as xconsole) can open /dev/console without breaking login on the text or serial console. This can be trivially triggered by enabling xdm in rc.conf and hitting Ctrl+Alt+F1 or equivalent once booted.
The changes: - Add entry for /dev/console or /dev/constty if missing - If a port's had /dev/console 'on' switch it off and enable /dev/constty - If a port did not have /dev/console 'on', leave /dev/constty off
Some ports had /dev/console off and /dev/ttyE0 enabled, presumably to avoid just this issue. It may make sense to adjust these also (but not in this pass)

Use "default" instead of "std.38400" for console and tty entries. 38400 doesn't seem to work well on 115200 baud consoles...

Change 'console' login to use /dev/constty so that its output isn't stolen by code that requests system messages using TIOCCONS.
